Does this make sense?

Hi all,

a stupid sounded question again, but this helps me to understand English so.. please!!

My question is, does this make sense as a copy?

"Help You Hit the Top 25"

I'm a freelance translator and one of the iPhone apps I translated just hit the number 1 (No.1!!!) so if I put the sentence at the end of my emails, with my signature, does it make sense?

What does the sentence make you imagine generally?

Thanks for your opinion in advance,

J

To me, it sounds awkward without the subject. It doesn't work for me. It sounds like an imperative statement.

Help [yourself] hit the top 25!

We help you hit the top 25!

[This] helps you hit the top 25!

(But these all lack style.)

Hit the top 25! (ie, do it!)
